Show us your Ragtop!
 
I searched and didn't come up with anything.

If you've got a cabrio, show it off! We need a place to compile all of our ragtops in one place so that we can see how all the different mods look when topless.

I'm gonna post pics of my ragtop when I wash her. But, it's hot as **** here in N. GA. right now. When it cools to 100, I'll hose her down.

Nice stripes! We don't already have a thread for this do we? I assumed we did but couldn't find anything.

Heres mine:

Hey, CR&PW&JB -- what's with the old "pre-mod" picture?

by the way, have you decided if you'll keep the boot de-badged?

Well, the only mods since this pic are the bonnet stripes and the red mirror caps. And since it rained and has been cloudy EVERY day since I completed those, I don't have any good pics of those yet. :impatient

I work tomorrow. But if Sunday is a nice day, I plan on taking some new pics. I'll post a new one on this thread then. Deal ? :)

And I have plans for the boot... it won't stay nekkid much longer. :sly:

^ Nice Pics, Chuck! Luv it - can't wait to be there with you guys next year!

MiniMaybee 08-24-2007 08:29 PM

Hey Paul, since that picture I've put a UJ decal on the gas filler door. I'll have to get a picture tomorrow. I've got a car show I'm going to.
You really need to get out here for next year's MITM. I know it would be a long drive, but worth it I think.

CR&PW&JB 08-25-2007 08:03 AM

^ Hotttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt .

And I'm not a fan of black wheels but they look great on that JB MCSC. Of course, I'm quite partial to '05 JB MCSC's !! :nod:

BlimeyCabrio 08-25-2007 08:25 AM

Yeah - the yellow Brembos are AWESOME with the black....would have never thought that before - but WOW...

I'm coming - done deal - plan is that I'll drive out and back solo (will probably convoy with some other folks from NC one way or the other) - then have the family fly into and out of Denver - and we'll make a week of it out there and go to the Four Corner area while we're there... I'll need to get a trailer by then to deal with baggage... (oooooo... just had an idea.... rent a U-haul sport trailer in Denver if I can find one.... yeah...)

minianni 08-25-2007 01:06 PM

Here's ours at MITM @ Pikes Peak and Leadville: see next post it works better when you hit upload.
